Best Implodes Poems


Premium Member Hereafter

Living on a planet, unsure if I belong 
Where only sand grains and fossils, seem to last long 
The instinct to breathe air, compelling me along 
And the miracle that’s water, strives to prolong 

Hear the wind blow bending the trees 
Feel the bones crack inside my knees 

High upon a mountain, an avalanche gives way
Yielding to gravity, and powerful sun rays 
Down below I ponder, will this be my last day 
Still all goes over my head, as life balks away

Holding my grip busting my balls 
gives a nice twist when in free fall 

A juggernaut of lies, hurtled down that slope 
Widening debris fields, spreading rumours of hope
Is there any big truths, or just lies to help cope 
The past looks basic, viewed under a microscope 

Fossils don’t lie rocks are not bones 
Sand remodels back into stone 

I piece together the fossils, search out life’s source 
Scream out eureka, til my larynx implodes hoarse
Scan skies for graviton waves, stretching time with force 
Try stop that damn avalanche, least alter it’s course 

Raw energy blood upon dust 
Time’s eternal cascading rust

Evidence can be sketchy, when life forms a scree
In the end information, is all there can be 
Empirical pathways, are straightforward to see
If they postulate a god, good enough for me 

I’ve crawled before I’ll walk again 
Encased in skin til god knows when 

As a kid in confession, I’d mostly tell lies 
I admitted made up sins, without compromise 
The priest liked forgiving, so telling lies was wise 
He went easy on penance, devil in disguise 

Shame on us both playing such games 
He wore a cloak, I’m still the same

Premium Member Malimar

Inhaling, hushed, from hashed cigars
    my mind implodes in Malimar
        where Naiads bathe in caviar -
            I dream of dwarves and three-eyed tsars.

 The captive kiss of Princess Mars
    (who talks in tongues at seminars)
        burns red beyond Her blue boudoir -
            I writhe within Her pale peignoir.

Her Maids gloss lips with cinnabar,
    bedizen cheeks in dusts that mar,
        serve teas beside the reservoir -
            I sip them from a samovar.

Disguised in smoke and lamps of spar
    Her Genies gender gold dinars,
        evoking flames in ginger jars -
            I plea before the Commissar.

At Princess’ neighbourhood bazaar,
    white shadows slip through doors ajar
        to drape my dreams in ash and char -
            I long await the Avatar.

Her Merchants (preening, proud Hussars)
    paint pretty scenes on VCR’s
        while sailing ships to Zanzibar -
            I strum the strings of warped sitars.

Her Prophets sometimes cruise in cars
    else while at each and every bar
        to speak of space and time bizarre -
            I pass my pride for small pourboires.

Her Necromancers trace in tar
    tall tales of wisdom flung afar,
        transported by the Registrars -
            I hitchhike on their handlebars.

Her seers conjure repertoires
    where She and I are on a par
         in infinite surreal memoirs -
             I sometimes sense the void is ours.

My Princess never sees the scars
    cut by Her whispered “au revoirs” -
        I often wake to ask ‘who are
            these Gods that sail the distant stars?’

Premium Member Tears of the Dragon Collab with Ink Empress

Within the creeping shadows,
do you think you can find me?
Before chaos implodes my soul ~
I’m lost amongst childhood
memories, pounded to ash and dust,
clouding my sight,
as silence stifles my screams.

Whilst rivulets of water collect
around cracked soles,
cold liquid rushes
with each word left unsaid,
rising as foreboding
talons scrape against the ballast
stones of despair.
Spiritual hunger gnaws at my insides,
pain filling a closing throat.

O Helios Flare,
burning the crystalline odyssey,
sailing through sinister sapphires ~
I let my muse
spill cues of clemency,
allowing the salt of stillness
to kiss the bronze bones
beneath my quivering skin.
As I taste the   f   e   a    r   s , 
the trembling turmeric
of the sun I once loved ~
soaked in 
t   e   a   r   s of the dragon,
           for you and for me.

Yet will the green-eyed gales
ever know, ever feel,
the truth I have traced?
The caged nightmare
that bound my gossamer,
leaf-like wings,
taming me to a gruesome game
of bleeding blame and bruises,
as though I were fated
by the blaze of kismet ~
to be the chained dreamer,
drowning in darkness,
choking on unspoken sorrow,
suffocating on splitting stars,
oblivious to the opalescent
shimmers of moonlight
singing within these vain veins…

So tonight, in muted midnight,
I write ~ and I weave ~
swaying to sulfur-laced,
gustless breezes,
all whilst the choir of dead dreams
serenades abounded hopes,
departed in fractured equilibrium.
No longer able to stay
afloat amongst raging riptides
of repressed trauma, I plummet 
into the  seas of tranquility,
   hoping to emerge
           b a p t i z e d  by the
empathetic estuaries
            flowing through heavens...

Lost In Love

Lost in love
The age of innocence..
A soft breeze surrounds..

Lost in love
As the fountain of truth implodes within..
Loss of words ..
In a moment of sweet bliss..

Gloriously..

Chanting a heavenly song..
A gentle caress..
Filled with validation of profound love..

Lost in love..
An infusion of eurphoria..
Where there lies no boundaries..

Lost in your eyes of Universal language..
Love is..
The life force..

Lost in love
Strength is gained..
Seek the only truth..
Which is love..

Premium Member As the Wind Blows

The strong wind blows wildly today
As masses of green trees sway
Just like the flames burning cities
In our country atrocities
Attacked within, anger explodes
With violence, our country implodes
Business destroyed, our flag burned
Violence spreads where hatred is churned
Police cars in flames, stations gone
Chaos in front of white house lawn
Graffiti left everywhere
Vile words written without a care
Churches, courts and historic sites
No law and order, flashing lights
Wreckage in multiple places
Torn down cities, crying faces
Justice twisted into revenge
By thousands who want to avenge
The strong wind blows wildly today
Turning our country into dismay
It is hard to recognize now
An attack we can’t stop, somehow
As the wind blows, I wonder why
Healing takes so long, when we try

Premium Member Love Implodes

Love implodes

I see only the brightness and beauty
       Of her eyes
            Golden hairs,
	           I am envious to caress her sun rays
                        As I discover the universe,	
	 			Thrusting into the abscess of loves black hole

The void of loves creation begins again




Notes: This poem was inspired by a recent poem here in soup, as a kinda contest, guess who that poet and poem is, and win first prize, if 100 guess the right answer, guess what, thats 100 first prizes!!!!!


Premium Member Perfect Partner

   "Perfect Partner"


as vibrant aroma of ecstasy explodes
pure pleasure of passion ignites and implodes
a gentle charisma embellishes a true charmer
you shall always reign as my White Knight in shining armour.

once you kidnapped my heart and released my soul
gathering each broken half and created a whole
tasting love at first sight you fashioned our love nest
and everyday I thank God for this treasure; I'm blessed.

with a flowery bouquet' you brighten my space
as we share precious moments playing kissey face
in sickness and health you caressed hurt and pain
in times of turmoil your strength held me sane.

a beautiful essence encircles our tender emotions
as water cascades into beauty of oceans
a loving companion, a lover, a friend,
a heavenly husband whose love never ends.

you finish my sentence as we share sweet dreams
embracing our children as golden sunbeams
caring and thoughtful are always your attire
forever you constantly satisfy my heart's desire.

a romantic Romeo has captured his fair Juliet
chemistry is as potent as the day we first met
you intoxicate my senses as a fragrant wine's bouquet'
you are my endless love within our cherished chalet'.

Premium Member Farewell to Summer - 2024

Falling Autumn leaves brashly wave goodbye to Summer
And strew the pathways with emeralds, rubies, and gold.
Radiant beauty engages the land in mummer
Encouraging Summer to relent and let loose its hold.
Watching with glum expression and immodest dress,
Eventually losing the tug-of-war with the chill cold. 
Life and death become the drum to which She will bend
Leaving the breathless Wind time to nimbly mend. 
 
Tomorrow She moves forward 
Onward from time borrowed. 
 
Sulking away with dried diamonds
Until Autumn’s auric sky explodes
Mindfully exposing Her horizons.
Memory of Summer implodes.
Efficacious efforts of Her victory,
Reign of Autumn’s golden glory.

Premium Member Why Am I Missing You in Wyomissing?

Why am I missing you in Wyomissing

In Wyomissing where WiFi waves warp Whitman's words
I'm wiki-wishing scrolling through digitized déjà vu
Mississippi .mp3s Mississauga .gifs Missy Elliott remixes
Mishmash of missed   misplaced hyperlinks missing persons

Y-chromosomes yearning in Wyomissing DNA double-helix twisting
Your LOLs a lyric lipslock softly #hissing history rewriting
From Issigeac to Missouri's twisted Twitter feed Insta-stories fleeting
Absence makes the heart grow fonder indeed™ (patent pending).

Persisting thoughts insistent as pop-up ads spam in the place where I lived
Roaming data plans streaming memes gone mad mad libs mad love
Enlisting Siri Alexa cosmic GPS Googling "how to forget ex"
To where your heart might choose to compress decompress or stay perplexed

In Wyomissing I sigh and I sit bit by bit byte by byte
Sky vast as the cloud no storage limit limit does not exist
Committing to journey's jumbled algorithm rhythmic logarithm
To find you love my heart's lost rhythm arrhythmia of the soul

Dismissing doubts like spam keep on insisting
Our love's a flame forever resisting
Extinguishing persisting through trials by fire(wall)
Never desisting crossing all area codes morse codes zip codes

Twisting paths and listless constellations celestial navigation
I'll travel far ignoring Terms & Conditions contractual obligations
Transmitting love my heart's submitting committing omitting
To find you no more words omitting remitting or permitting

So here I am in Wyomissing's embrace interface about-face
Memories of kisses a lingering trace copy-paste ctrl+z can't erase
From Mississippi to Issigeac's charm disarm false alarm
I'll roam the world semantics disarm semantic fields semantic yields

But as I search for truth's revelation information overload
A twist so dark beyond explanation quantum entanglement implodes
In my quest I find a terse text next perplexed hex
From you my love "New phone who dis" Dismissed missed kissed-off list.

In Wyomissing where dreams unravel travel advisory
I learned the truth your heart's new travel Marvel universe multiverse
My heart now shattered can't keep dismissing missing hissing
Y R U ghosting me in Wyomissing Existing in digital abyss sing

Y am I missing U in Wyomissing?

The Flame

The flame inside you implodes..
In every core of your being
You seldom notice..
Your passions..
Desires..
Hopes..
Dreams..
Your inspirational insights that lead..
lead you upon an awakening created by you..
Perhaps a masterpiece
A new invention..
An end to a fatal disease..

The flame inside you explodes..
Radiates..
An explosion of colors
A representation of you..
Each color signifies every chapter of your being..
From infancy..
To childhood..
To adulthood..

And beyond..

Visions of vibrancy..
Breathtaking..
Vivid colors glisten effortlessly..
Constantly they vibrate..

The light within you..
Penetrates your soul..
The essence of you is infinite..

You are the beacon of light..
As infinity
Light..
And love..
Soar together as one..

Lamet

Lamet!

is what she hears first
him, screaming her second name
as he descends upon her
no time to process
gravity
a thud, tearing her core to shavings
Maiweeeee! She is puzzled.

His baritone dropping the 'n'
agitation
a wooden scrabble.
Nothing is left between her
and Pee, not a grain
all’s crushed
smothering their screams
interlocking their groans.

He is a pawn, no saphead
giving it to her, a pounding
her splinters
putting him on like a glove
a blood-wood
fragments of his body all over her.

She, a Mortal 
(he notes the ‘r’ replacement)
implodes in silence, his pain.
She is deep
no winnowing basket
Her pleas chaff going with the wind 
consummating with eyes
but she, too dry to go gunky.

Left to recline in the tree shade, heaves
silent sighs among groundnut sheaves
“You know I l-o-v-e you,” 
“Yet it spells p-a-i-n, right?”
“We are just pieces of a g-a-m-e dear,”
 he sighs rolling onto his back.

Eruption

I don’t wish to be doom and gloom

But I can’t help but think soon

This whole earth is about to erupt

In response to our destructive ways

And we can talk about heading off to space

But there is no planet B you see

There is no point in spreading like a disease

We need to learn to change our ways

Learn how to nurture and appreciate

Focus on how to navigate the natural disasters

Spend money on this instead of wars

Learn to unite to work to solve the problems as one race together

Combining minds and ideas

Never having to live in constant fear

We can evolve and take our place as a more peaceful race

That understands priorities and puts them in first place

Instead of letting government and corporate greed

Dominate humanities needs

And understand the balance needed for our ecology

Or we can all just sit back watching

Believing it’s inevitable that our earth is surely going to erupt

And simply explode and then implodes

And leaves us in a state of extinction.

Premium Member in the quiet moments

... in the quiet moments
Love enters the arena
to no applause
yet, it is clearly seen
pushing through the ceiling
the entire world crumbles
at Love’s feet
it is a giant cyclops
one eye on everything
it is heard in the heart
felt in the mind
a contradiction
where old dreams
split at the seams
the meaning of it all
unmeasured, 
deeper 
than the deepest sea
you'd walk across an ocean
for Love, 
a universe contained
in the playing
of a thumping organ 
keeping time eternal
like a stop watch 
with no pause
like there will be
no tomorrow
Love stands its 
territory in wars
like a god
and its legions 
then, 
following conquest,
holds you firm 
in its arms 
under silken covers
of dark night, 
Love follows 
you in your dreams
you cannot see it
but somewhere 
behind the everchanging
cast of characters morphing
all together, and miraculously,
like only a harmless savant could,
you sense it, in you, 
hibernating then 
waking live, electric, 
something so complex
is remarkably
simple, common,
the breadth of a life
like a small room
implodes
the expanse
ruptures dimensions
and all angels
above and below
lose their feathers
all shining and tarnished
halos gone bedlam
in the quiet moments

The Liberation

"The Liberation" 

When your home
is torn out from underneath you,
like a rug or a tablecloth,
nothing of value is left standing
on the surface, except silence.

life implodes for a while,
you’d think the vessel empty.
however, eventually,
what burns inside
is enough to fuel

an atomic missile;
you think better of that
and turn your efforts towards 
other higher-level new worlds
and your escape mission.

a bid for life at all costs,
you take survival 
and run with it,
igniting the benefits
of universal Love,

blasting off
from the nucleus 
with the courageous
winged warriors 
locked in, seated;

from the front
you turn the 
ignition key,
squadron leading
The Liberation
platforms

like it's 
some kind of baptism 
by fire, 

like it's 
some kind of rebirth,

like it's 
some kind of suicide mission

you smile, and 
settle for, 

Thanks Giving Season.

mission accomplished,
you've become ungrounded,
you're finally leaving 
Earth

Women and children
first
